My Thoughts
Oh, Stranded Deep. I have such a complicated relationship with you. I like you a lot, but I am terrible at navigation/direction. And that is so, so important out on the ocean. My navigational (lack of) skills notwithstanding, mechanically in many ways it’s your typical survival sandbox, except the ocean/island setting does give an increased reliance to supply & inventory management. I’ll go over it in more depth on a future review, suffice to say – I think you should try it! Also, bring a friend. If you’re going to get lost, may as well bring someone along to blame.
